Basic Bike Info
Bicycle Type:
Hybrid Bike
Serial No.:
WTV05K2696G
Size:
61" I think
Color:
Charcoal
Condition of Bicycle / Distinguishing Features:
One year old, so fairly new. There are Bontrager handlebar hand grips, a Bontrager BackRack,and an aluminum kickstand. When I left it, there was also a milk crate attached with 3 colored bungee cords on the BackRack. There was also a front light mount on the handlebars, a back light mount on the milk crate and a hand pump mount facing left underneath the water bottle holder. The bike has dropped on its side a couple of times, so the Bontrager sign on the right handlebar is a little scuffed. Also, when the bike is in 14th gear (2 large, 7 small), the chain rubs the chain guide making a distinctive sound, but only in that gear.
